About The Research Group

Professor Sheldon's research group studies paleoclimatology, global change, and
biosphere-climate interactions. The group's research investigates linkages between climate
and weathering/soil formation on a variety of spatial and temporal scales using whole
rock geochemistry, light stable isotopes, and modeling to understand past climatic
and environmental change and biogeochemical processes.
